Beginning a New Adventure

I have decided to branch out into an adventure that caused me to be first interested in photography. It is funny because I was always the person who did not really know how to use the camera. I was the person who always had a giant flash in the corner of his image. It wasn't until years later, that I discovered that if you have your finger right next to the flash then it would reflect right back into the lens, using an old point and shoot, disposable camera.

I have since improved!!!! I began moving deeper into photography in 2006 and begun perfecting (and still am) my skills. My whole interest was motivated back then by creating something that others would love to look at. I knew that I wanted to see my images hung upon peoples walls, which to me is the ultimate flattery in this art.

My photography took a different turn and I went toward stock photography. This interested me greatly and I still enjoy shooting for stock imagery. However, my first interest was still eating at me and I wanted to be able to find an avenue to get my images onto walls of people who would appreciate them.

Here enters this opportunity at FAA. I have now found that new avenue, which has now sparked another interest in me.....Artistic Painting. This is a skill that I have not used in many years and will take some time to refine, but I will strive to do both mediums and possibly work in more (sketching, pastels and others).

So bare with me and I hope that you find interest in my works, so they will find a home amongst your homes.
